MID-WEST FARM REPORT - MADISON

More than $32 million in dairy farmer generated funds are managed by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin (DFW).  Headquartered in Madison, DFW focuses on enhancing the value of all Wisconsin produced dairy products.

Ultimately the goal is to return those dairy invested dollars back to the farm gate.

Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin connects with farmers and consumers to take them behind the curtain of marketing, analytics, and consumer trends to try and show them the value generated on their behalf.

This program is sponsored by Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.

Ice Cream Month Is "Dairy" Sweet!

Teri Barr discusses Madison School District’s Farm to School success, as students take raising food from seed to plate by learning how to grow and prepare fresh foods.

The upcoming ag weather forecast looks good until rain chances increase Sunday

Larry Lee interviews Willie Cade with Repair-dot-org, who explains how repair costs for farm machinery now exceed the cost of operating that machinery on a per-acre basis, and how the trend of dealers carrying fewer parts is keeping down machines off line longer, costing farmers even more money.  He also suggests farmers opt out of the proposed John Deere settlement on right to repair and access to diagnostic software.

Kiley Allen introduces us to Wood County Century Farmers at D&J Kundinger Farm, with John and Dorothy Hardesty.
